In their hit song “Wannabe,” the Spice girls sing about the importance of putting friendship above relationships. Friendship is certainly a theme that runs deep within the iconic ‘90s British girl group and others including TLC and Destiny’s Child.
But aside from that, these groups also had a solid footwear track record. Each member of the Spice Girls embraced her own style—Sporty Spice was often seen in sneakers while Posh Spice (aka Victoria Beckham) went for more glamorous styles.
The group as a whole often rocked platform sneaker, leading to a seriously popular ’90s trend that continues to make periodical comebacks.
The ladies of Destiny’s Child had a soft spot for anything metallic, sparkly, and of course, matching. TLC, meanwhile, went straight for the most unexpected style possible: the Moon Boot.
At the 2001 MTV Movie Awards, the ladies of “Moulin Rouge”—Pink, Lil’ Kim, Mya and Christina Aguilera performed ‘Lady Marmalade’ wearing knee high boots.
